Coaching Terms

Last updated

All Policies

Welcome to Notes by Thalia, a brand of Thalassa Digital Ltd. Our Services are provided to you based on the following Terms & Conditions.

First of all, you can find our Privacy Policy on our site: https://notesbythalia.com/policies/privacy-policy/

  • You accept our Terms by:
    • (a) continuing to use our services 
    • (b) paying for our services; or 
    • (c) written confirmation, including by email

Blueprint call terms

  • All sales for Blueprint Calls are final, and no refunds will be provided.
  • If you need to cancel your session for any reason, a minimum of 24 hours’ notice is required. With at least 24 hours’ notice, your session will be rescheduled to another available time.
  • Your session may only be rescheduled one time.
  • Cancellations made with less than 24 hours’ notice may result in the session being forfeited.
  • In the case of a no-show, the session will be forfeited and will not be rescheduled.
  • Arriving late will shorten the length of the session, as all appointments must finish at the scheduled time. To get the most out of your call, please be punctual.

Time zone & reminders

It is the Client’s responsibility to book their session at a time that aligns with their own time zone. I also encourage you to check all confirmation and reminder emails to ensure you don’t miss your session.
Please note that I will not be able to chase or remind you individually — if you miss your session, it will be marked as a no-show and forfeited.

Coaching program

  • This agreement will begin upon acceptance and will include a minimum of 12 sessions.
  • The Fee for the initial discovery call is £0
  • The Total Fee for 12 sessions is £1350 inclusive of sales tax
  • A full 12-week payment is due at the time of booking (unless otherwise arranged). This can be made by any debit or credit card via Stripe, a secure payment system.
  • Any late payments will result in the coaching program being put on hold.
  • All 12 sessions are to be completed no later than 120 days from the start of this agreement. Upon completion of the 12 sessions, the coaching relationship will be reviewed and renewed under discussion with the Coach and Client if desired. 
  • The services to be provided by the Coach to the Client are coaching or tele-coaching, as designed jointly with the Client. Coaching is not advice, therapy, medical assistance or counselling. It may address specific personal projects, lifestyle changes, business successes, or general conditions in the Client’s life or profession. 

Rescheduling/Late Attendance

  • I value your time and mine, so please give me a minimum of 24 hours’ notice if you need to reschedule a session for any reason.
  • All sessions that are cancelled with less than 24 hours’ notice will be forfeited.
  • Your sessions may only be rescheduled up to three times per 12 weeks.
  • In the case of a no-show, the session will be forfeited and not rescheduled.
  • Arriving late will shorten the length of the session, as all appointments must finish at the scheduled time. To get the most out of your call, please be punctual.

Time zone & reminders

It is the Client’s responsibility to book their session at a time that aligns with their own time zone. I also encourage you to check all confirmation and reminder emails to ensure you don’t miss your session.
Please note that I will not be able to chase or remind you individually — if you miss your session, it will be marked as a no-show and forfeited.

Refunds

  • Due to the nature of my coaching services, I do not provide refunds. Should, in the unlikely event, a problem or disagreement arise, I will make every possible effort to find a solution.

Confidentiality

  • The Coach promises the Client that all confidential information provided by the Client to the Coach will be kept strictly confidential, and will only be disclosed with the Client’s consent, or as required by law, regulatory body or coaching industry requirements.
  • All sessions will be recorded for your use and review. These session recordings will be stored securely on Google Drive and can only ever be accessed by either the Client or Coach.
  • Please note, these recordings will be deleted from Google Drive at the end of our coaching relationship. If you wish to keep a copy of your sessions, you can download them directly from Google Drive

Coaching relationship

  • Throughout the working relationship, the Coach will engage in direct and personal conversations. The Coach seeks to be honest and straightforward in asking questions and making requests. The Client understands that the power of the coaching relationship is affected by the Client, and the Client agrees to commit to a powerful coaching relationship.
  • If the Client believes the coaching is not working as desired, the Client will communicate that belief and take action to return the power to the coaching relationship.
  • The Client acknowledges and agrees to the pivotal role of their commitment in the coaching process, recognising that optimal results are dependent upon active and dedicated participation.
  • To maintain a powerful coaching relationship, please make sure you attend every session from a Laptop or Computer and connect to Zoom using a stable Wi-Fi connection.
  • Any direct messages sent via Campfire or Pings will be responded to within 24 hours from the time the message was sent.
  • Please do not duplicate or share any of our materials made available to you

Guarantee

  • I am committed to your success and stand behind the effectiveness of my coaching services. I guarantee that if you, the Client, actively participate, show dedication, and put in the required effort throughout the entire duration of our coaching relationship, you will achieve significant progress towards your ideal outcome.
  • This guarantee is contingent upon:
    • (a) The Client’s commitment to actively engage in the coaching process, complete assigned tasks and follow the provided roadmap.
    • (b) The Client’s active participation in the coaching service. The Client must attend all scheduled coaching sessions.
    • (c) The Client’s completion of all assigned tasks, action items and exercises outlined in the coaching session(s)
  • The guarantee does not apply if the client fails to fulfil their commitment, attend sessions, participate actively or complete assigned tasks as outlined in the coaching session(s). Additionally, it does not cover circumstances beyond the coach’s control, such as external factors affecting the client’s ability to pursue their goals.
  • The guarantee covers the entire 12-week coaching period. To be eligible for the guarantee, clients must complete the full program term.
  • Upon successful completion of the 12-week coaching program in adherence to the outlined Terms and Conditions, clients who do not feel they have made significant progress toward their ideal outcome may request further coaching at no additional cost until they achieve the desired outcome.
  • Any concerns or disputes regarding the guarantee will be addressed through a review and consultation process between the client and the coach.

Feedback

  • Your feedback is important to me. I seek to resolve your concerns quickly and effectively. If you have any feedback or questions, please contact me directly.
  • If there is a dispute between us, we agree to the following dispute resolution procedure:
    • (a) The complainant must tell the respondent in writing, the nature of the dispute, what outcome the complainant wants and what action the complainant thinks will settle the dispute. We agree to meet in good faith to seek to resolve the dispute by agreement between them.
    • (b) If we cannot agree on how to resolve the dispute, any party may refer the matter to a mediator. If the parties cannot agree on who the mediator should be, the complainant will ask the Law Society of England and Wales to appoint a mediator. The mediator will decide the time and place for mediation. We must attend the mediation recommended by the mediator, in good faith, to seek to resolve the dispute through mediation or other alternative dispute resolution processes. 
    • Any attempts made by the parties to resolve a dispute under this clause shall be without prejudice to any other rights or entitlements of the parties under these Terms, by law or in equity.
